At 20 degrees C, the speed of sound is approximately 344 m/s.
\n" ); document.write( " The lower limit of sound waves audible to the human ear is about 0.0172 m.
\n" ); document.write( " What is the frequency of these sound waves?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Wave-length = velocity/frequency
\n" ); document.write( ".0172f = 344
\n" ); document.write( "f = 344/.0172
\n" ); document.write( "f = 20,000 or about 20 kc, that's the upper limit of the human ear
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
